Biography and Research Information

OverviewAI-generated summary

Lisa T. Jansen's research investigates physiological adaptations and metabolic changes across various conditions, including disuse atrophy, cancer cachexia, and dietary transitions. Her work has explored sex-based differences in the development of muscle atrophy in female and male mice, examining catabolic signaling and mitochondrial function. Jansen has also studied the metabolic flux of amino and keto acids across multiple organs in pigs and analyzed the glycemic adaptation following shifts between low- and high-carbohydrate diets in humans. Her publications include findings on the sufficiency of total water intake guidelines for adult hydration and the distortion of short dietary trial findings by macronutrient changes. Jansen holds an h-index of 14 with over 100 publications and has collaborated with researchers at the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences and the University of Arkansas at Fayetteville.
